The fact is that-there is no worth- while Ame: a industry in*existence ihat dces not owe its preeminence and its exist- ence to the favors of a beneficent govern- } ment which, through legislation, tariffs, subsidies, bonuses and grants has fostered ard supported these so-called products cf | “free enterprise.” The airplane industry is often cited as an example of what “free enterprise” can with what governmental operation accom- plished in other nations. As a matter of | fact, before the war began, the civil opera- tion of airplanes in the United States was | possible only because the nation spent vast ; Sums of money to promote the development of aviation. Moreover, the airlines that were estab. lished in the United States, and io foreign countries, © were liberally through mail routes. This is amply demon- (strated. by the recent decision of the Civil | Aeronautic#*Board, which fixed mail rates en Pan-Almerican’s Pacific routes to ihe Orient and New Zealand. Service was begun on a route from San Francisco to Auckland, New Zealand, | on July 1, 1940. The rate, just established. gave the company a 7 per cent return on its “investment in operations” | Thereafter, the rate on the New Zealand line and one to China and Singapore was | lixed to provide an average net return of | 11.7 per cent on a $7,318,645 investment. We make no objection whatever as io the establishment of these routes or of the contribution of the government which made them possible. We merely point out that the entire project is a result of gov- ernment payments, with “free enterprise” doing the operating and the nation footing the bill. Under such a system, “free enter- prise” takes no risks, the governmert compared : subsidized | for four months. | THE KEY WEST CITIZEN KEY WESi iv DAYS GONE BY FROM FILES OF THE CITIZEN October 239 1932 City Attorney J.

This writer has often wondered whe- ther grown-ups have the proper conception ot the importance of the children in theit ccommuniiy. There are many ways in which they can render useful service to so- ciety and, at the same time, . acquire val- uable experience, The recent scrap metal Grive, which was@uch a decided success, il- lustrates the idea manufacturing com- ye now ent aged in manufacturing naterial and when the war is over they will resume their former manufacture of Tt cial articles. In the meantime, however, the public will forget their peace- time productions and the companies will suffer as a consequence unless they kept their names and manufactures in the pub- lic eye through advertising, so the advertis- ing will be continued by the former pro- ducers as a recognized necessity, to. keep their names and the names of their peace- time products before the consuming public. in order to maintain goodwill and be in a position more effectively to regain their nermal markets after the declaration of peace. SMALL ITEMS AND SCRAP overlook the contribution that he, or she, can make to the effort to save metal for che war effort. This attitude is understand- able, but it is very important that every man, woman and child take positive action te salvage critical metal and to avoid its use whenever possible. o Along this line, Charles L. Sheldon, chief of the Containers Branch of the WPB, says that if every Aimerican family will | eliminate the purchase of one can of can- ned food every week, the practice would make available almost 190,000 ions of steel, over 2,600 tons of tin and about 77,000 tons of rubber annually. This steel] would construct 5,000 medium tanks, or38 Liberty ships, The tin | would meet the needs of 3860 75-MM Howitzer and the rubber would be enough | for 2,000 jeeps. Ancther example of the ‘effect of small savings, when practiced by millions loe Ross, who is Director of the Mint. She points out that a lack of topper caused ihe mint in September to produce only 59,000,- 7 000 1-cent pieces, about half the production | level of the summer months. She then observes that if every Amer- | ican family returned to circulation ten of | the pennies now “hoarded” away in chil- dren’s banks, old purses and stored-away summer suits, America would have 1,000 more tons of copper for munitions. CHECKED FOR TWO MONTHS Leon Henderson, frank and aggres- sive head of the Office of Price Adminis- tration, reports that the upswing in ihe cost of living has been checked for two months.” He believes that inflation can be stop- ped because the American people “will not commit hari-kari.”” He insists that stabil- ization of wages and farm prices is neces- sary. While: regulation is a new thing and there is minute rules, the Price Administrator i; confident that “as the seriousness of the situation deepens. . .Aimerican labor ani American farmers will accept the same dis- cipline that retailers and manufacturers have so magnificently accepted.” The average Ametican is inclined to | of Americans, comes from Mrs..Nellie Tay- | “commendable resistance” to | Ulric Gwynn, W: Those who enj the rty besides’ Mr. and Nh Gwynn include Mr. and Mrs. Fd Saunders, Mr. and Mrs. Lionel Plummer, Mr. and Mrs. Cleveland | | Saunders, Mr. and Mrs. Cleveland | Dillon, Mr. and Mrs. Leo Warren, | Mr. and Mrs. Rex Shaw, Mr | Mrs. Russell Kerr, Mr. and | Ansel Albury, Mr. and Mrs. Sam | Kemp, Mr. and Mrs. Ivan Elwood, | Mrs. Ralph Russell and Mrs. suGy Aguero. | | Today’s Editorial: “That the; |Casa Marina hotel will not be: | open for the coming season is un-| pleasant news for Key West.
